Thank you to Daniel James from (Malku Travel Pty Ltd ) for making this Pilgrimage, the most epic journey of my life. A big thank you to also Pastor Parama and Pastor Molly, Pastor Siva and Pastor Jennifer for their Spiritual input. I am grateful for the privilege of seeing the breath taking views of the Pyramids from my hotel . I really enjoyed our camel ride whilst visit ting one of the wonders of the world (the Great Pyramids and Sphinx), cruising on the Nile. we traveled through the Sinai desert and stopped over to visit the Moses springs and St Katherine. it was like walking in the footsteps our Moses. What an awesome experience it was to be walking in the footsteps of our Lord in the Holy Land and also our visit to the Dome of the Rock or Temple Mount, Western wall, Mt of Transfiguration, having Holy Communion at the Garden Tomb and other lovely places like Jacobs well in Samaria and having the opportunity to taste of the waters from the well. In Jordan to see where Moses died in Mt Nebo and to visit the baptism site there as well, not forgetting staying at the Dead Sea hotel was an amazing experience. Our of the Holy Land made the word of God become more alive than before. I have such a deeper connection to God now after journeying to the Holy Land. Thank you for the luxury air conditioned buses and excellent Hotel accommodation. Daniel I commend you on a job well done. I would whole heartedly recommend my friends and families to consider doing this pilgrimage. It is truly a life changing experience. Looking forward to the next one. Shalom and Blessings, Visha

I would like to thank Pastor Daniel for the wonderful experience that we have had on our trip to the Holy Land Israel. Right from the planning & preparation & the flights everything went so smoothly. Our hotels were very accommodating & so were the meals. The tour guide & the bus driver were such kind & friendly gentlemen. Pastor Daniel made sure we had the best. Going to all the beautiful sites was such an amazing experience with no hiccups & we felt so safe & toured with such an ease. Shopping was such a breeze coz they took us to good places where we weren't robbed. I would definitely encourage every believer to make a trip to Israel & highly recommend Pastor Daniel as the tour agent. He's a wonderful & caring person who never left our side even when we were leaving at the airport & called when we were safe at home. I am definitely going back on another trip & will go with Pastor Daniel & Malku Travels Thank you Pastor Daniel much appreciation 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Thank you Malku Travels,Awesome trip. Enjoyed every bit of it. There was so much to see, the hotels and food was excellent, took a boat cruise on the sea of galilee, baptism at the river Jordan and floated on the dead sea, a time for prayer and reflecting at the Garden of Gethsemane, had our wedding vows renewed at Galilee, witnessed the wedding site at Cana and lots of shopping and souvenirs with a meaning. I would recommend anyone that is planning a trip this is a must. Pastor Daniel James really plans his trips well
